With family get togethers coming up for the holidays. Do any of you have to deal with - "those" relatives? The one's who love to talk politecs, religion and are anti- guns. And one always leeds to another. Then comes, You Damn Right Wingers!!
The older I get the harder it is to hold my tongue. And don't alot of the time >:(
I guess you can pick your friends not your family ;D

My family is pretty much dominated by crazy right wingers so this is never a problem. We just complain about the moonbat libs.
-
My aunt and uncle that are so far left that even Obummer seems a moderate became Massholes a few years back. He come down to DC from Boston a few times a year and puts "Impeach Bush, investigate the 9/11 conspiracy" pamphlets under thdoors of Congress and Senate office doors then heads back north. He never tells us when he comes down, we're only a hour south of DC. I thinks he's afraid of stopping over.

My wife's Aunt and Uncle are two of the finest people you could ever want to meet, but are die hard 1930's unionist. That also means true blue dems. They are at heart, very conservative, but the "Union" is never wrong. And they always support Democrat candidates. Fortunately, politics are never discussed at the family get togethers, until my wife's cousins (conservative to the extreme) start needling (good naturedly) them on their choice of candidates. No one ever looses their temper and it basically becomes a contest on who can get the biggest laugh.

Maybe BHO will lead us into a depression we can blame on the dems.....

Where do you get "maybe" ? just the threat of him in office has inflation climbing and unemployment at a 16 year high.

Kind of the same thing here. Two aunts and a cousin. They are way way left. This year will be interesting with BHO ready to run the show.

Oh, not to worry - everything bad is gonna be Bush's fault for at least the next 8 years! >:(

Bingo! Hopefully, BHO will be thrown out of D.C. after only 4 years, though. I'm at least maintaining hope. :) Unfortunately, Bush will carry the blame for everything until we have another Republican President that the Dems can use as a scapegoat. Butt HOle, on the other hand, will be seen as a savior no matter how bad he screws up because he was Pres. during "tough times". Yeah, like Bush's Presidency was a cake walk. Dems. seem to forget a little event like 9/11, as well as post-Clinton fallout (makes me really popular with my liberal friends when I talk about this), but that shouldn't have caused him any complications. ::)

Dont hold your tongue..... use it as an opportunity to pick up votes for our side....... Democrats are not bad people.... they are just misguided.

The old adage "a liberal is just a conservative that hasn't been mugged" applies to some my family. I get to talk to my gay b-i-l over Christmas about his carry options.
And knowing some of you fellas, I'll answer the inevitable now - no, it's not his job to stuff the turkey. ;D

You really can't choose your family can you? Liberals and conservatives can both get upset over him.

Even as late as 1999, Clinton was still blaming Reagan for the bad stuff that was becoming apparent with his admin.

Thing is, We are not "Right wing". Leftists believe in a one world nanny state, like the old "Warsaw Pact" Right wingers believe in a National or ethnic based dictatorship like Hitlers Reich, which included Austria Germany and German dominated areas of Poland, France, and Czechoslovakia.
We are ACTUALLY in the middle of the road, we don't want to dominate ANY ONE, nor do we want or expect any one to "take care" of us. The problem is that the majority of the countries media and politicians have moved so far to the left that the scale has been tipped to make the self sufficient person seem an oddity.
-
Maybe we "right wingers" need to 'rebrand' like the commies, libs etc who became "progressive" (should be regressive!)
"Originalists" or Constitutionalists" isn't 'sexy' enough, "patriots" are dismissed by the media (as well as being mis-defined) so we need something new.
Ideas?
-
Realists?
The reality is our government sucks, and we can see it.

I feel for you shooter :'(
I've got the ever famous gun hating, libs coming to my house for Thanksgiving :'(
These are the same a'holes that preach (she's even a pastor) non-violence, non-resistance and pacifism, but it did not bother them to "hope for an assasination of President Bush" as the only hope for our Nation a couple years ago :'(
I will not let loose with my full feelings, because there will be innocent bystanders that would be hurt in the arguements (including mother-in-law who is going through first major holiday without father-in-law at her side). However, it is hunting season, and the guns will be right inside the front door as always!

You might tactfully (or not ) point out that "non resistance" didn't work out to good for the Jews in Hitlers Germany.
